Don't know what this one could be but not butterfly related.

Hi @Hejor1 , perhaps try 'Insects' for a possible id.

Could be a beetle larva but not one I know. Try Kim Pullen.

Thanks. @Hejor1, have moved from butterflies to beetles. Good luck.

Possibly weevil larvae perhaps? Tim's sightings were at the ANBG in April. I'll try to remember to check the area next April and see if I can find any to raise to adulthood.

@owenh @AlisonMilton @TimL Tim’s sightings look very similar!! If I see it again I’ll try to rear it, although I haven’t had much success rearing things!
